Happy Birthday, Martha!

Today is my daughter's 12th birthday. This year she is particularly embracing her Hispanic heritage and asked for a Mexican flag cake. Here's some pix of the festivities:

I didn't realize until I'd already taken the pictures that I'd put the eagle on upside-down. The green section's supposed to be on the left. I'm such a doofus! Thankfully she didn't notice, not being particularly attuned to such details.

She's growing up so fast.

My birthday wish for her? That she could encounter the sweetness of academic success and desire more of it.
